Black leather has a way of feeling a little stiff at first and then settling to the shape of your wrist. This Q&Q men's watch pairs that strap with an anthracite metal case and a grey dial, in a round 45 mm format that reads as quiet rather than loud.
The grey dial is kept simple, with slim line markers that give structure without crowding it. The hands and markers are luminescent, so once they have taken up some light you can still read the time in the dark. A day-of-the-week display sits on the dial, and the movement is analogue quartz, so the only upkeep is a battery change now and then.
The strap is black leather and will soften and gain character with wear. Keep it away from water if you want it to last. It closes with a pin buckle, adjustable hole by hole to suit your wrist. The width between the lugs is 22 mm, worth noting if you ever want a replacement strap, and the total length is 25.5 cm. If you like this style, you will find more in our men's leather strap watches.
The metal case is 45 mm across and 12 mm thick, with a mineral glass crystal. It has real presence on the wrist, so if yours is on the slim side, check the size before you choose. Water resistance is 5 ATM, which copes with rain and splashes but is not meant for swimming. The watch weighs 70 g.
The dark leather and muted grey dial suit office wear without any fuss, and the watch is just as comfortable at the weekend. It is easy to wear every day.
